Before creating a manager queue, you will need to install WebSphere MQ Server or MQ Explorer and MQ Client.

These examples are based on Linux. Switch to the mqm user.

su - mqm

Use the crtmqm command to create a manager queue. In this example, manager queue MANAGER01 is created.

<mq install root>/bin/crtmqm -q MANAGER01

You can then use the dspmq command to display the manager queues on the system and the strmqm command to start the queue manager. You will next want to create a local queue.
